PC - M'board Socket - (Athlon/Duron)





Motherboard socket types - this page for both Slot-A & Socket-A - All the AMD Duron & Athlon chips up to current available processors.


There are so many different processors, and they all fit different motherboard type connectors... I for one get tired trawling round the www trying to put it all in order mentally, so i spent the whole day collecting data to make a list... Not definitive, but includes most of the processors we would use for digital audio, and a few oldies we won't probably use much anymore.

All this page is for is so that you can checkout a chip speed and what type of board connector it takes, and for newbies to show them the different socket TYPES and the chips that go with them.

For us PC-Audio people it all starts with the MMX pentium in the olde days... and from there we've had SLOT-1 for P2 & Celeron and AMD came with the SLOT-A for their early Athlon's... The SLOT-A looks like the SLOT-1, and is 'the SLOT-1 for Athlons'...

On both types (Intel slot-1 & AMD slot-a), the CPU sits on a board enclosed in a case with cooler, that looks like a video cassette... Intel pushed the 'Slot-1' & P2 & older P3 aside and went to the New P3 & Celerons on SOCKET 370 (a ZIF socket), easy to install chips into.... the AMD K7 Athlon & Duron moved to the Socket-A. - Now we are on the next gen of P4 & Athlon... up to and above 2ghz.... we have the Athlon & Duron on SOCKET-A and the P-4 on SOCKET-423 & SOCKET-478.


This page is for chips... Slot-A & Socket-A, Athlon & Duron.



Slot A



AMD Athlon (K7)

Developed by AMD, Slot A is mechanically similar to Intel's Slot 1. However, the electrical requirements are different from Slot 1. AMD's Athlon processor uses Slot A.

Recently bought an ABIT KR7A-RAID motherboard for high-end music workstation, with 1800XP chip, 512 RAM and IBM Deskstar drives, 1 on the standard IDE channels and 2 on the RAID controller. Built the whole thing myself, ooh, aren't I clever (no). DOes work very well with M-Audio Audiophile with Win98, but not so well with Win2K. Could NOT get SB Audigy to work, nearly drove me mad, avoid avoid avoid. A lot cheaper than equivalent Intel platform, Cubase is blindlingly fast although have not loaded it that heavily. Beware of using two drives striped as if one fails you lose the lot unless you know what you're doing and can rebuild the stipeset. Also stiped RAID uses more CPU so not so good if using soft synths as will impinge.

I have an Asus A7V V1.02 BIOS V1006 Motherboard fitted with a AMD Thunderbird 1.4Ghz. processor, the FSB is set at 100mhz and the speed is 1000Mhz. Question? Can I up the FSB to increase the speed safely under these conditions? It appears that the FSB can be adjusted one mhz at a time. Should I be careful and move slowly upwards?
What do you think
Regards
Sparky
